Short description
Identification keys | Morphology | Morphometrics
Anal soft rays: 46 - 50; Vertebrae: 59 - 64. This species is distinguished from Notoliparis kermadecensis in its well-defined lower pectoral-fin lobe 33.74% HL (vs. absent) and its 1:1 ratio of haemal spines to pterygiophores with one anal-fin ray and one pterygiophore for each haemal spine; generally with fewer vertebrae 59-64 (vs. 63-68), anal-fin rays 46-50 (vs. 49-54), pectoral-fin rays 29-34 (vs. 31-36), and caudal-fin rays 12-14 (vs. 13-15); with coronal pore and t1, t2 or t3, and t4 pores (vs. absent); differs from both N. kurchatovi and N. macquariensis in the numbers of vertebrae with more than 59 (vs. 50-58), pectoral-fin rays 29-34 (vs. 31), caudal-fin rays 12-14 (vs. 13), and head length 17-22% SL (vs. 24–25% SL), interorbital width 5-8% SL (vs. 8-9% SL), disk length 5-6% SL (vs. 9-10% SL), and gill opening length 23–35% HL (vs. 24-26% HL) (Ref. 129455).

Estimates based on models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = No PD50 data [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00525 (0.00237 - 0.01161), b=3.15 (2.96 - 3.34), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 3.6 ±0.6 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilience (Ref.
120179): Medium, minimum population doubling time 1.4 - 4.4 years (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
59153): Low vulnerability (24 of 100).
